Abstract: Design and development of spaceborne scientific devices for operation on board of the spacecraft rank among to special science & technology activities due to extraordinary challenging demands for high reliability in hostile space environment. The development requires experienced and qualified personnel, expensive space-qualified components and expensive qualification testing in compliance with requirements of individual space agencies. „Centre of Space Research: Space Weather Influences” (CSR), established with the support of funds of EU in the frame of Operational program Research and Development, project ITM 26220120009“, significantly contributed to enhancement of Department of Space Physics IEP in procurement of space qualified components and materials for space experiments under development and in technological abilities for developing and testing infrastructure.
